(14,449 posts)President Obama has decided not to charge this jerk and his co conspirators for war crimes most likely to save President Bush and this turd is still bashing the President. Ugh! I really wish the President would change his mind and go after them. Get Cheney, Rumsfeld and the others up on charges. President Bush could get immunity if he tells the entire story or the President could charge him, have him go through process and perhaps pardon President Bush but not the others. Thoughts???? I know treating President Bush differently would not be popular, but he is the sole reason that President Obama didn't go after all of them IMHO.
